Living With Inflammatory Bowel Disease; Should You Try A Low-Residue Diet?

Meats To Eat

Meat and animal products like eggs are typically free of fiber, so it is okay for someone with IBD to consume them if they so choose. Poultry, pork, beef, and fish are all fiber-free choices, and the leaner the meat is, the healthier it will be. Additionally, eggs do not contain fiber. Since eggs and all types of meat are protein-rich, these are excellent healthy additions to a low residue diet when treating IBD. Of course, as with all of the other foods in a low-residue diet, moderation is key for maintaining a balanced and healthy body.
